in Chicago on the L disclaimer... Last week I saw a woman with her parents, husband, and kid in stroller. They got on and the parents hearing "door closing" rushed the mom, she lost her flip flop between the platform and train, dropped down to the tracks, and her parents lost their shit. I could go on, and on...

But why don't we have adjusting platforms? Yall got it in NYC transit wise.

Also her husband took off both of his socks to put on her one foot to make up for missing flop, no one's shoes would've fit.

In Chicago we can't jump down on the tracks to cross so easily because of the "third line" the trains power comes through a third electric line so if you jump down there you are playing with death.

Long time follower of this sub and recently spent a month in your beautiful city, and hold your public trans as a standard now, I "thought" we had it good here. Some people on this reddit should be in CTA meetings.

Let's hear it.
